Stop in on our next Network Koffee at the float site in the War Memorial Parking Lot and check it out. Thursday, December 17 at 8am. Food by the soon-to-be-open Great Harvest Bread Co. Yum!

Out of the Ashes of Old City Yard Rises . . . What?

The City Council of South Pasadena wants your ideas on what to do with the City-owned property at 825 Mission Street. This site was home base to Public Works Department vehicles and supplies - and part of it still is - in an "open air" kind of way. You see, in April 2009, a fire reduced the usable facilities area, a bit. Now they want to know: replace, rebuild, renew, redo? About two-thirds of the west garage was destroyed. On the other hand, thanks to our crack fire team and support from many others, the historic Plunge Building next door was saved.
Please submit your suggestions to the City Manager's Office by December 31, 2009 via letter, fax, email, or in person at: City Hall-City Manager's Office, 1414 Mission Street, South Pasadena, CA 91030 or call (626) 403-7210 or Fax to (626) 403-7211 or email: cmoffice@ci.south-pasadena.ca.us
